I’m a graduate of French studies and history programmes, currently living in Wrocław. I’ve been interested in visual arts since childhood when picture albums with reproductions of works of art as well as photographic magazines satisfied my need to enjoy colourful illustrations, which were missing in children's books published in the communist era. Interestingly, I was most moved not by the spectacular photographs depicting landscapes and the natural word, or stunning studio photography, but by images showing what seemed to be uninteresting, ordinary, and mundane.
